Installation of MySQL on Linux use denver#-serverb

Objective: Tarball Installation of MySQL 8 on Linux using OFA architecture

Notes:

 This lab can be completed by each student inside ist own VM

 we call this instance mysql-advanced

1. Create a new user/group for your MySQL service and add ‘oracle’ group to opc. Usually the is used
the user “mysql”, but because he’s already available we show here how create a new one

shell> sudo groupadd oracle

shell> sudo useradd -r -g oracle -s /bin/false oracle

shell> sudo usermod -a -G oracle opc

2. Close the SSH connection and open a new one to let opc user have the new group.
ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa opc@[server ip]

3. Create new directory structure:

shell> sudo mkdir /mysql/ /mysql/etc /mysql/data

shell> sudo mkdir /mysql/log /mysql/temp /mysql/binlog

4. Extract the tarball in your /mysql folder

shell> cd /mysql/

shell> sudo tar xvf /workshop/linux/mysql-commercial-8.0.17-

linux-glibc2.12-x86_64.tar/mysql-commercial-8.0.17-linux-
glibc2.12-x86_64.tar.xz

5. Create a symbolic link to datadir (this help when you upgrade the software)
shell> sudo ln -s mysql-commercial-8.0.17-linux-glibc2.12-x86_64
bin

6. Create a new configuration file my.cnf inside /mysql/etc with these lines inside
(e.g. with “sudo vi /mysql/etc/my.cnf” or “sudo nano /mysql/etc/my.cnf”)

[mysqld]
# General configurations
port=3307
mysqlx_port=33070
server_id=10
 socket=/mysql/temp/mysql.sock
user=oracle

# File locations
basedir=/mysql/bin
plugin-dir=/mysql/bin/lib/plugin
datadir=/mysql/data
tmpdir=/mysql/temp
log-error=/mysql/log/err_log.log
general_log_file=/mysql/log/gl_log.log
slow_query_log_file=/mysql/log/sq_log.log

# Maximum limits
max-connections=200
open-files-limit=5000

# Security setting for file load

secure-file-priv=/mysql/data

# InnoDB settings
innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit=1
innodb_buffer_pool_size=512M

# MyISAM settings
key_buffer_size=124M

# Enable binary logs

log-bin=/mysql/binlog/binlog
binlog-format=row
sync_binlog = 1
master-info-repository=TABLE
relay-log-info-repository=TABLE
gtid-mode=on
enforce-gtid-consistency=true

# Performance Monitor
performance_schema_consumer_events_statements_history_long = ON

# Plugin load example (MySQL Enterprise Thread Pool)

plugin-load=thread_pool.so

7. For security reasons change ownership and permissions

shell> sudo chown -R oracle:oracle /mysql

shell> sudo chmod -R 750 /mysql

8. initialize your database and retrieve

shell> sudo /mysql/bin/bin/mysqld
--defaults-file=/mysql/etc/my.cnf --initialize --user=oracle
9. Start your new mysql instance
shell> sudo /mysql/bin/bin/mysqld
--defaults-file=/mysql/etc/my.cnf --user=oracle &

10. Verify that process is running

shell> ps -ef | grep mysqld

shell> netstat -an | grep 3307

11. Another way is search the message “ready for connections” in error log as one of the last
shell> netstat -an | grep 3307

12. Retrive root password for first login

shell> sudo grep 'temporary password' /mysql/log/err_log.log

13. Before version 5.7 it was recommended to run the ' mysql_secure_installation ' script. From version
5.7 all these settings are “by default”, but the script can be used also to setup the validate_password
plugin (used later). Execute now mysql_secure_installation

shell> /mysql/bin/bin/mysql_secure_installation -P3307 -

h127.0.0.1

using these values

 root password: retrieved from previous step
 new password: Welcome1!
 setup VALIDATE PASSWORD component: Y
 password validation policy: 2
 Change the password for root: N
 Remove anonymous users: Y
 Disallow root login remotely: Y
 Remove test database: Y
 Reload privilege tables now: Y

14. Login to you mysql-advanced installation and check the status (you will be asked to change
password)
shell> mysql -uroot -p -h 127.0.0.1 -P 3307

mysql> status

15. Create a new administrative user called 'admin' with remote access and full privileges
mysql> CREATE USER 'admin'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'Welcome1!';

mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'admin'@'%' WITH GRANT

OPTION;
16. Check whether the commercial Thread Pool Plugin is loaded an active:
mysql> select * from information_schema.plugins where plugin_name
like 'thread%';

mysql> select * from information_schema.plugins where plugin_name

like 'thread%'\G

1. Shutdown and restart:

shell> /mysql/bin/bin/mysqladmin -uadmin -h127.0.0.1 -p -P3307

shutdown

shell> sudo /mysql/bin/bin/mysqld

--defaults-file=/mysql/etc/my.cnf --user=oracle &
